SDSUPD app launch

On Tuesday, Jan. 26, SDSUPD launched a new app for SDSU students, faculty and staff called Aztec Shield.

The app can be used for emergency or non-emergency situations and provides users the ability to reach SDSUPD.

Key features include: an interactive crime map detailing the activity of SDSUPD in the area, a “Friend Watch” feature to allow people of the user’s choosing to monitor their location, and the ability to report incidents with picture and video, among other features.

Aztec Shield will be available for both iPhone and Android users.

SDSUPD’s bicycle registration event

On Thursday, Jan. 28, SDSUPD will be hosting a bicycle registration event.

From 1 to 5 p.m., SDSUPD will be giving out free Kryptonite bike locks and a copy of the new San Diego regional bike map to all SDSU community members who come to register a bike.

The event will take place on Cuicacalli Walk.

The goal is to lessen the number of bike thefts on campus, Peterson said.

Registering a bike provides SDSUPD the bike’s serial number that will help with recovery if stolen.

All SDSU community members attending the event should bring their bike and Red ID.

After the event, bikes can be registered at the police department’s front lobby Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Bike locks will be given out with all registrations while supplies last.
